Oh hello

Hammers have come back out of the toolbox, the doors are finally their correct colours, a nice big whiteboard adorns the mezzanine wall, a large vertical garden is underway, and Valhalla Social Cinema have been working on a secret project… There is more to tell, but it will have to wait for next month! Electron Workshop is getting a 2014 refresher.

We’d like to extend a warm welcome to Hollaback! Melbourne, who have recently moved into the space to focus on ending street harassment. Hollaback! is creating a crowd-sourced initiative to end street harassment by calling out the harassers on their behaviour. Learn more at http://melbourne.ihollaback.org/

Upcoming meetups / events

Thurs Feb 20th – Better Careers Collective – a new meetup focusing on how to channel your potential into new career directions, or your current career path, putting you in the driver seat and on your way to a brighter future. Details on their Meetup.com page.

Sat Feb 22nd – Social Coding with GIT & OpenTechSchool – enter the world of social coding with Git and GitHub! In this course we’ll introduce you to Git, a popular tool for storing and sharing the source code to your programs (or even other files.) It’s a tool that keeps a copy of your files, but not just one copy. It keeps track of every version of every file in a repository. Details on their official Meetup.com page.

Thurs Feb 27th – ExpressionEngineAustralia – dedicated to the ExpressionEngine CMS platform – more information is available on their official Meetup.com page.

Sat March 8th – Valhalla Social Cinema presents their epic 24hr sci-fi movie marathon again in 2014 – presented in 2K and back with an almighty vengeance. Boasting some of the best, new sci-fi alongside old favourites not seen on big screens in decades. Sci-fi marathon fans spoke; we listened. The Terminator? Check. Australian sci-fi? Got that too. In all, it’s sixty years of eclectic science-fiction. TICKETS SELLING FAST! GET SOME.
